Omitted but not right away (4,3)
I believe the answer is:
left out
'omitted' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'not right away' is the wordplay.
'not right' becomes 'left' ('left' is the opposite to 'right').
'away' becomes 'out' (synonyms).
'left'+'out'='LEFT OUT'
'but' is the link.
(Another definition for left out that I've seen is " Omitted".)
I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
